We've pioneered a set of standards called the Successful Project Assurance Guide for homeowners.

This will allow you to judge beforehand whether or not a contractor is likely to do your job right the first time.
"***PLEASE READ BEFORE GOING WITH RAPID ROOFING!!!! Short story: Don't go with them - they do terrible work and you will regret it, but you probably won't know until it's too late. If you do, get *everything* inspected afterwards, and don't pay until it's right. Full story: We recently purchased a house with a roof done by Rapid Roofing 2021 or 2022. I went into the attic to figure out some ducting up there and noticed that there was ambering in the joists. I found out this was caused by over heating. I looked into this more, and figured out that there wasn't anywhere remotely enough air flow to allow hot, humid air to escape. What little ventilation was coming from the soffits It is 100% illegal and not to code to install roofs without the necessary airflow - it causes over heating which damages the roof and the wood, and can cause mold issues due to condensation. According to Michigan Building Code 1203.2 Ventilation required: "The net free ventilating area shall be not less than 1/150 of the area of the space ventilated." We're lucky if we have 1/10000 - there's ventilation at the roof ridge, but zero replacement air vent lower in the roof. They should have known that ventilation was required. We reached out to Rapid Roofing to see what it would take to fix this - they said it was out of warranty (you have to sign up within 1 year of purchasing the house to transfer it, which is BS, but I guess that was in the contract), but they said would see what they could do since they acknowledged it was their mistake. The head of customer service gave a long story about how their quality had gone down and he was trying to make things right now that he was in a position to do so. We had even suggested that we'd be willing to pay. After several calls with them promising to fix it strung out over months of us having to hound them because they don't return calls, they then stopped answering calls and ghosted us. So I guess we'll be paying to have someone else put in proper, legal venting. Don't use them. Don't trust them. Don't waste your money on them, you will regret it. We're looking into the possibility of suing them, you don't want to be in the same place as us in a few years."
